Today has been a rainy one, but a nice break from the sweltering heat, I even turned the AC down! How nice for a change, I can almost hear the electric bill drop......, but then soon the gas bill will soar out of sight and out of reason, today at the grocery store we paid almost ten dollars for a stinking chicken...A CHICKEN! $9.76 sheesh.....what is going to happen before this all eases up? Are we in the end of times? Are we heading straight into a depression that will make the last one look like childs play? I will admit, I am a little scared, no let me rephrase that, I AM scared alot. Middle aged, no retirement, living from one pay check to the next same as many other americans are doing, and what was once comfortable is now very uncomfortable. We are lucky in the fact that we have medical insurance, and that we do have a steady paycheck weekly to look forward to, athough small wages compared to the average american today, yet I am thankful for what I do have, and know that I am blessed in relation to so many. I have noticed that bids are down, at least on my auctions, I wonder if anyone else or everyone else are seeing the same thing. Christmas is just around the corner, and I am starting to list my winter stuff now, I do have alot of nice things that will make great Christmas gifts, and I hope that you all will check my auctions out as I list. I am still learning my way around Ebay even though I have dabbled with it for four years. One thing I am really trying to figure out is how you get such nice pages up. I have a myspace page,    http://www.myspace.com/marylovinit, and spent alot of time learning how to customize that, and thought I could do the same thing the same way to make my blog page, but oh nooooooo, that does not work the same way, so if anyone out there wants to help me out with some pointers, I really would appreciate it, come and visit me at myspace and add me as a friend....

Well, those are my thoughts for today and my concerns for the future, I will stop here and get back to the normal daily routine that I have established for myself which is work...work..and more work!! I hope you all have had a wonderful week end and are all happy and healthy...God bless you
